Crashing: Trailer, certificate and where to watch
The lives and loves of six twenty-somethings living together in a disused hospital.
2016
Certificate: 15
Before Fleabag, Phoebe Waller-Bridge created this six-episode sitcom about a bunch of twentysomethings making their home in the most affordable housing they can find - a disused hospital where they get cheap rent in return for keeping the building safe.
As an ensemble comedy it's a very different animal to the personal, confessional style of Fleabag, but the romantic and sexual chaos and toe-curling scenarios are there, as are the frank dialogue and moments of melancholy. Joining Waller-Bridge are Jonathan Bailey (aka Viscount Bridgerton) and new Bergerac's Damien Molony. (Six episodes)

Article continues below Scott recently told how he credits acting for helping him overcome a speech impediment. He explained to The Times magazine: "I had a speech impediment as a child and acting helped me be less self-conscious and shy. "I had a strong lisp and in elocution lessons I practised improvisation and verbalising phrases like, 'She sells seashells on the seashore.' "I still find acting helpful." Away from appearing in front of the camera, the actor, who is due to star in 'Wake Up Dead Man', the next Knives Out mystery, takes pleasure in painting. He said: "I love painting people, and my mother [who was an art teacher] was very influential. She made sure that I drew from observation. "She always said, 'Draw something that you see, not something that is in your mind', and that's always stuck with me. "I don't have a life you'd describe as unusual. I live in the city, and I go home to Ireland and see my loved ones. "I go to the gym and, honestly, I just love going to the movies. And galleries. All of that artsy stuff gets my heart beating. Article continues below "Nature is increasingly important to me. I love the coast particularly. And mountains. And spectacular canyons. All of it is pretty amazing."

Actress Liza Goddard has said she is "a bit frightened" to debut her Scottish accent when she performs on stage in Edinburgh next month. The 75-year-old star, who has appeared in TV shows including Doctor Who and Bergerac, as well as 1969 series Take Three Girls, said she had been "trying out" her accent in shops in preparation for playing 19th-century crofter Enid McRae in a production of play The Croft, at the Festival Theatre. The play has already been performed in theatres across England. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Ms Goddard also revealed she had enlisted the help of Lewis folk singer Dolina Maclennan to help her pronounce some Gaelic phrases required for the part. Based on a true story, The Croft, which also stars Coronation Street and Casualty star Gray O'Brien, charts the life of the last woman to live on a remote croft on the Applecross peninsula. 'I'm a bit frightened about performing in Edinburgh,' Ms Goddard said. 'I've had lots of practice and a very good voice teacher. Sometimes, apparently, I go to Morningside, but mostly I stay in the Highlands. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'I quite like accents. I do practice all the time in shops. I don't know why I feel that people in shops are going to say 'oh, you're not Scottish'. But of course, they don't. They're probably accepting of however you talk. Liza Goddard stars as Enid. | The Croft 'So, I don't know if that's a good thing, but I have a happy time being Scottish most of the time.' Ms Goddard added: 'Gray [O'Brien] is very useful because he'll tell me if my vowels are going a bit south.' Mr O'Brien said the pair have a ritual to get Ms Goddard into her Scottish accent before going on stage.

She's so jolly hockey sticks normally that it is funny to see her playing this dour, crofter woman.' He added: 'It's been a really difficult play. It makes you feel guilty that people are turning these old crofts into holiday homes, after all that happened in the Clearances. I know the audience in Edinburgh will have a good awareness of that. I'm not sure how much our audiences in England knew before.' The Croft writer Ali Milles was inspired by stories of local women told at the Applecross visitor centre. The play moves between the life of Ms McRae, in the 1870s, to modern times, when other characters stay at a holiday home next door to Ms McRae's remote croft. Ms Goddard said she had called on Ms Maclennan, a friend of Scottish actor John Bett, to help her with the Gaelic lines.

I feel confident doing it all because of her. It'll be a great treat to meet her when she comes to Edinburgh to see the play.' Director Alastair Whatley said he found the location a "really spooky place" when he visited out of season to get a feel for the area before starting work on the play. He recounted finding himself in the Applecross Inn with just one other guest. 'I went up and I visited it a few times, and it's an amazing, beautiful place,' he said. 'But when it's raining and it's dark and you're on your own, it's a really spooky place.' Mr Whatley said of staying at the award-winning Applecross Inn: 'It was just me and one other guest, who I never met, and the owners. It was the off season and nothing was open out there, and it was pouring with rain. It was really kind of bleak, but also magical, it was quite easy to get into the play.'
